The "connect the dots" re-broadcasters in Y2k

Nowhere did the INTERNET cause more FUD SPREADING than in the Y2k "hysterics". Here we have a good example of both "re-broadcasting" and "connecting the dots" (by people who usually use CRAYONS.

A "leading practioner" of "re-broadcasting" saw fit to spread every last piece of manure that "looked bad" while seldom if ever posting to his own list anything that showed Y2k remediation was progressing. Along the way, he distributed some of the worst material going. Here a responsible Police Officer addresses the issue raised but does R. Martin bother to add that?

FOLLOWING WAS A SPAM FROM R. MARTIN "Y2k Paul Revere". Note that he left this out in his spam.:

"(EO) 12919 gives FEMA coordinating power over all federal agencies and
everything those agencies have jurisdiction over. They also have coordinating
power over all free market resources," explained Frith.

"When you start looking at all these pieces, they are adding up. They are
adding up," he stated.

Frith has an agenda to spread distrust of government and create fear,
according to one Michigan Y2K emergency planning official.

"There's this tendency for people to think that there's something hidden
somewhere in somebody's files, or some secret discussions going on," said Mike
Prince, Michigan State Police Emergency Management Division, public affairs
officer in a phone interview with WorldNetDaily.

"That's certainly not our feeling. Most of that is hype and most of that is
people trying to generate mistrust, and people trying to generate fear, and
people trying to profit or benefit from spreading misinformation and that kind
of fear," he explained.

Frith pointed out that he does not sell anything. He is paid as a consultant.
He does not sell Y2K related books, or preparedness supplies.

Plans have been made for mass evacuations, government takeover of
private industries, and the use of martial law, according to a
Y2K consultant to the state of Michigan.

All the mechanisms have been put in place for mass evacuations of
people to government shelters, government takeover of utilities
and private industries, martial law, and a complete transfer of
power from local governments to the federal government, according
to Franklin Frith.

Frith is a consultant hired by Michigan to conduct workshops for
state, city, and county agencies on how to prepare for
contingencies related to the year 2000 computer bug, which is
expected to cause disruptions. The extent of those disruptions
may be anything from minor inconveniences to massive
infrastructure failures.

Frith became alarmed when Michigan's many government agencies
opened their documents to him. In them he claims he found
compelling evidence that a greater problem exists than has been
admitted publicly.
